63 | WHY DOES THE BIBLE SAY THAT THE DEVIL IS | John 8:44 | Aliennow | 159727 | ||
Originally, only the epithet of "the satan" or "the adversary" was used to denote the character in the Hebrew deity's court that later became known as "the Devil". The article was lost and this title became a proper name: Satan. There is no unambiguous basis for the Devil in the Torah, the Prophets, or the Writings. Zechariah 3:1--"And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the Lord, and ha-satan standing at his right hand to resist him." This reading has since been erroneously interpreted by some to mean Satan, "the Devil", but such is not the case. The Hebrew Bible views ha-satan as an angel ministering to the desires of God, acting as Chief Prosecutor. The tempter: Gospel of Matthew 4:3--"And when the tempter came to him." None escape his temptations. He is continually soliciting men to sin. In Gospel of Matthew 10:25 and 12:24, Mark 3:22, and openly in Luke 11:18-19 there is an implied connection between Satan and Beelzebub (originally a Semitic deity called Baal-zebul, one of the Baals.) Beelzebub (lit. "Lord of the Flies") has now come to be analogous to Satan. The wicked one: Matt. 13:19--"Then cometh the wicked one." Matt. 6:13; 1 John 5:19. This title suggests that Satan is one who is wicked himself. Abrahamic religions generally regarded sin as a physical manifestation of opposition to God, and therefore evil; dissent only comes from the topic of 'where does sin come from?' In John 12:31 and 14:30 Satan is called Prince of this World; this became a nickname for him. 1 Peter 5:8--"Your adversary the devil." By adversary is meant one who takes a stand against another. In the Christian worldview, Satan is the adversary of both God and humanity. The Devil, diabolos: This name is ascribed to Satan at least 33 times in the Christian scriptures and indicates that Satan is an accuser or slanderer (Rev. 12:9). Dragon or The Old Serpent: These epithets are used extensively in the Book of Revelation. The Beast (Book of Revelation 13:1-18) is a term John the Evangelist used to refer to a "puppet" of the dragon's (Satan), and a term supposedly used by John in Revelation 17:3-17 to designate the Devil (or the Antichrist); this name appears several times in the book of Revelation, and it became another nickname for Satan. Abaddon or Apollyon: Referred to in Revelation 9:11, commonly interpreted as the name of Satan in Hebrew and Greek respectively. |

64 | What causes tormenting demonic images? | Bible general Archive 3 | Aliennow | 159726 | ||
The stronger your relationship comes to Christ the more of a threat you are to Satan and he will attack through demons, deception, and temptation. Have you tried sharing it with your church family and allowing them to lay hands on your husband and pray for deliverance? The concept of spiritual warfare is based on the understanding that Satan and demons are real beings whose primary mission is to thwart God's purposes on earth, specifically to prevent non-believers from placing faith in Christ and to prevent Christians from being effective disciples of Jesus. |

65 | John 3:16 | John 3:16 | Aliennow | 159725 | ||
This is clearly Jesus speaking. The message of the Good News comes to a focus in this verse. God's love is not static or self-centered, it reaches out and draws others in. Here God sets the pattern of true love, the basis for all love relationships - when you love somebody dearly, you are wiling to give freely to the point of self-sacrafice. God paid dearly with the life of his son, the highest price He could pay. Jesus, not John, accepted our punishment, paid the price for our sins, and then offered us the new life that he had bought for us. |

Matthew 22:32 "I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. So he is the God of the living, not the dead."

73 | Are babies going in the rapute? | Matt 24:22 | Aliennow | 159693 | ||
There will be babies and others here on earth when the rapture comes. I am not sure what you are really looking for but here are some scriptures on what I consider the "Rapture". In 1 Corinthians 15:51-52, the Apostle Paul writes: "Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed." In 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18, Paul writes: "For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord." In Philippians 3:20-21, Paul writes: "For our conversation is in heaven; from where also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself." |

Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom—both young and old—surrounded the house. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them." Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing. Genesis 19:5-6 I understand that the 2 people were Angels, but did Lot? Can you interpret for me this part of the scripture, "Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them." |
